Hello there,
I have a Upload field where user uploads 50 rows of 2 columns data from/csv onto form.
I have to read all those and display the data in editable grid before submission.
To achieve this i have used submitUploadedFiles function with empty process model to start on its button click.
Even though data displayed on Interface object correctly, throwing error on front end.
Please help me if i did something wrong.
Added code snippet for upload and button
a!columnsLayout( columns: { a!columnLayout( contents: a!fileUploadField( instructions: "NOTE: CSV file size cannot exceed 50 rows and should only include tickers and weights", target: cons!SRT_FOLDER_UPLOAD_CSV, maxSelections: 1, value: ri!document1, saveInto: ri!document1 ) ), a!columnLayout( contents: a!buttonArrayLayout( buttons: a!buttonWidget( label: "Read File", saveInto: { /*a!submitUploadedFiles(documents: ri!document1),*/ /*a!save(local!validTickers,*/ /*reject(fn!isnull(_),index(a!flatten(index(rule!SRT_INT_bmuMorningstarUniverse(*/ /*tickers:index(local!fileTickers,"ticker",{})*/ /*),*/ /*"result","body","Universe","Security",{})),"Ticker",{}))),*/ a!startProcess( processModel: cons!SRT_PM_UPLOAD_FILE, processParameters: {}, onSuccess: a!submitUploadedFiles( onSuccess: { a!save(local!submissionSuccessful, true), a!save( local!parsedFileData, index( readexcelsheetpaging( ri!document1, 0, a!pagingInfo(1, cons!SRT_INT_FILE_IMPORT_ROW_MAX), 2, null, true ), "data", "values", {} ) ), a!save( local!fileTickers, if( rule!APN_isBlank(local!parsedFileData), {}, a!forEach( items: local!parsedFileData, expression: a!map( ticker: if(fv!isFirst, null, fv!item[1]), allocation: if(fv!isFirst, null, fv!item[2]) ), ) ) ), a!save( ri!portfolioData1, append( ri!portfolioData1, a!forEach( items: remove( local!fileTickers, wherecontains( null, index(local!fileTickers, "ticker", {}) ) ), expression: { 'recordType!{5bf7f7cb-2b7c-430f-93b1-102a13b4f3af}SRT Portfolio'( 'recordType!{5bf7f7cb-2b7c-430f-93b1-102a13b4f3af}SRT Portfolio.fields.{cb090f37-4d4b-43f3-9393-8ceb1cba74a5}tickerOrCusip': fv!item.ticker, 'recordType!{5bf7f7cb-2b7c-430f-93b1-102a13b4f3af}SRT Portfolio.fields.{42f5fce0-6c85-488c-a1e6-ce2d5d14db86}productName': null, 'recordType!{5bf7f7cb-2b7c-430f-93b1-102a13b4f3af}SRT Portfolio.fields.{154478bd-35f2-4ef1-b0f2-81449e3fb855}portfolioVersionRefId': 10, 'recordType!{5bf7f7cb-2b7c-430f-93b1-102a13b4f3af}SRT Portfolio.fields.{277086ff-1613-4c0b-84e9-9932ba4f19bc}investmentType': null, 'recordType!{5bf7f7cb-2b7c-430f-93b1-102a13b4f3af}SRT Portfolio.fields.{df7e6b6d-508d-4a78-8d12-41372a07944f}isActive': true, 'recordType!{5bf7f7cb-2b7c-430f-93b1-102a13b4f3af}SRT Portfolio.fields.{1fc0f544-5ee9-4cdf-990a-e365e1a9d247}allocation': fv!item.allocation ) } ) ) ), }, onError: a!save(local!submissionSuccessful, false) ), onError: a!save(local!submissionSuccessful, false) ) }, ), align: "START", marginAbove: "MORE" ) ) } ),

Don't think you can put the submitUploadedFiles in the onSuccess of the StartProcess. It needs to be at the root of the saveInto.
Thanks for responding.
I tried using this function in the beginning of saveinto as well, however the problem is still same when we call it from Site front-end.
Surprisingly it is working on a dummy site with dummy interface but failing on our actual Site.
Works here on dummy as below:
= a!localVariables( local!document, local!submissionSuccessful, local!parsedFileData, local!items, local!button, local!fileTickers, { a!fileUploadField( target: cons!SRT_FOLDER_UPLOAD_CSV, maxSelections: 1, value: local!document, saveInto: { local!document } ), a!buttonArrayLayout( buttons: a!buttonWidget( label: "Save", submit: false(), value: true(), saveInto: { local!button, a!submitUploadedFiles( onSuccess: { a!save(local!submissionSuccessful, true), if( local!submissionSuccessful, a!startProcess( processModel: cons!SRT_PM_UPLOAD_FILE, processParameters: {}, onSuccess: { a!save( local!parsedFileData, index( readexcelsheetpaging( local!document, 0, a!pagingInfo(1, cons!SRT_INT_FILE_IMPORT_ROW_MAX), 2, null, true ), "data", "values", {} ) ), a!save( local!fileTickers, if( rule!APN_isBlank(local!parsedFileData), {}, a!forEach( items: local!parsedFileData, expression: a!map( ticker: if(fv!isFirst, null, fv!item[1]), allocation: if(fv!isFirst, null, fv!item[2]) ), ) ) ) } ), {} ) } ) } ) ), a!gridLayout( headerCells: { a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Ticker"), a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Allocation"), }, rows: a!forEach( local!fileTickers, a!gridRowLayout( contents: { a!textField(value: fv!item.ticker), a!floatingPointField(value: fv!item.allocation) } ) ) ) } )
but same code called inside the main interface is failing with same error
This totally is weird.
I am able to find the issue, just realized our main interface is running on start form where this function clearly not supportive.

Why would you do this? If you're not doing anything with the process model, don't use a!startProcess(). It's not needed for a!submitUploadedFiles() either way.
Initial thought was to see if this function works in first place and move things into process eventually.
Is there any work around to display the uploaded csv document on Interface into editable grid without submitting the form?
Right now user upload document and click submit, looping back to the same interface
.
Want to know if there is better approach as submituploadedfiles() do not support.
Another thought is Save it in temporary folder(which also requires a process) and move to permanent after actual form submit. Either of these need to be submitted once on upload submit and twice on final submit.
It's supported in this context as of Appian 23.2 - what version are you on?
Malleswari T said: as submituploadedfiles() do not support.
On 23.2 i tried an example from documentation which is throwing the error from my initial screenshot/post.
It does not work with or without a process.
Getting Unsupported in this environment on SITE
As per documentation, i think since you are using inside a task, a!submitUploadfiles() wont work. As it is not supported in task and start form
Yup thats my finding as well
